The Duke of Buckingham’s Christmas party was not only the social event of the year but the one occasion when Lady Buckingham’s nemesis, Lady Williston, came to the castle.
During the rest of the year, letters would fly back and forth, starting with “Dear _____” but filled with cold insults and back-handed compliments. Buckingham considered herself the champion of the contest if Williston acted the boor, the broad, the cow, during the party.
She’d won six years running.
Time to ensure her win for a seventh. A letter reminding her of her dreadful behaviour last year should do the trick.
